But since each bay can be mapped to any group of eight analogue channels, there are other options. For instance, you could have a 24-channel control console as a front end for 96 analogue channels. While the famous bus compressor has a feedback topology, the SSL channel dynamics have traditionally been feed-forward, and this is the case with the Odyssey. In similar fashion to the analogue channel modules, the pre-fader processing and insert can be routed in any order. Each instance links the DAW channel to a console channel, so that your DAW session contains all the necessary console automation.
